DESCRIPTION:
A white rainbow is a piece wrote by the Jewish composer Yosef Hadar, born in 1926 in Tel-Aviv.

For more than 50 years, Yosef Hadar wrote popular songs and composed numerous pieces. He is an important element of Jewish contemporary creation. Yosef Hadar died on August 26th, 2006, at the age of 80.

In honor of the 10th anniversary of his death, we present his famous song "A white rainbow", recorded in the Abbey Church of Saint-Gildas-De-Rhuys on July 29th, 2016.

Lyrics :

Morning comes so brightly, clear and fresh today.
Someone daily helps me, illuminate my way.

What shall we ask while walking on the way ?
What shall we ask for quietly ?
What ?

Just that the grass will stay green, just that the sun keeps shining,
And with its light will stroke us, you and me.
Just that the grass will stay green, just that the sun keeps shining,
And with its light will stroke just you.

Blue-eyed little child, bring me light today,
With your starry two eyes, help me find my way.

What shall we ask while walking on the way ?
What shall we ask for quietly ?
What ?

Just that the grass will stay green, just that the sun keeps shining,
And with its light will stroke us, you and me.
Just that the grass will stay green, just that the sun keeps shining,
And with its light will stroke just you.

Someone let me know a rainbow white as snow.
From inside that rainbow, a wondrous tone will grow.
